The Punjab, India — Punjab Police, in a joint operation with central agencies, arrested three key accused, Jatin Singh Bisht, Amandeep Singh, and Mehakdeep Singh, from the Indo-Bhutan border in India — West Bengal. These individuals were wanted in connection with the Batala double murder case, which occurred on April 27, 2026, in Bhoma village, Batala, where four assailants opened fire on three persons, killing two and injuring one. The arrested accused are allegedly linked to foreign-based fugitive gangster Happy Jatt and were acting on his directions to carry out planned killings.
